Crafts & Hobbies #62: Decoupage

Decoupage is fun and easy to do. My sister and I found a large wooden spool and decoupaged it and then put a round glass top over it and used it as a table for her patio. A friend of mine had his coffee table professionally decoupaged with pictures of his family, friends and vacations. I found an article about doing a kitchen backsplash that I will attempt to do in the next couple of months. It was just using cutouts of leaves of various shapes and sizes. This theme will work well in my kitchen that is being revamped. Wish me success.

There were some very interesting sites to explore. I think the RecycleBank in Repurpuseful would be a great incentive for people to start recycling more because most people would participate if they were getting gifts/prizes for their efforts. I may attempt to make an Altoids Tin Emergency Candle from a post on Instructables.

I think videos are great for simple projects, but would prefer written instructions to go along with the video for more complicated projects.
